Please remove the "Scaling Health" mod for the full experience. I will remove this mod in a future release.

What is this?

A vanilla+ modpack revolving around the Create mod. Fuel your factory efforts with Mystical Agriculture, Bonsai Trees and Easy Mob Farm. There is not a lot of end-game content so this may be demotivating for some.

What can you expect?

A Performance Friendly Experience

I have used Spark Profiler to see which mods were tanking performance in a brand new world for no good reason. All of these mods have been removed. InControl mod prevents the spawns of mobs that I found to be annoying in Minecraft. For example squids and various types of fish no longer spawn. The End and Nether dimensions have not been tested yet.

If your game FPS drops please use /spark profiler start and play for a bit and then use /spark profiler stop and then click on the link that appears in chat and look at which mods are the biggest FPS offenders.

Servers seem to lag other players considerably when hostile mobs are enabled even though I don't have any added monster mods in this. Set the world difficulty to peaceful to get around this.

New Content

Upgrade your gear with Tinkers Construct and Tinkers Levelling Addon, automate resources and recipes with Create, Easy Mob Farm, Bonsai Trees, Refined Storage, and Mystical Agriculture. Find powerful artifacts that will aid you in your adventure. Armor up with the Epic Knights mod.

An Immersive World

Many new ambient sounds to experience, lots of new biomes to explore alongside Alex's mobs. Getting to the End is much harder now. Naturally spawned chest inventories are unique per-player. Find new crops from Croptopia.

Guide

Mining the World

The first thing you're going to want to do is create a Tinker pickaxe entirely made out of copper. You can make vanilla-like tools with copper but I wouldn't recommend it, the Tinker variant is better because it increases the speed at which you mine the deeper you are in the world. You can use the Part Builder to create the required copper parts. I also recommend making all the other basic tools out of copper. Use redstone to increase the speed at which these tools mine. Once you find enough iron, craft a Tinker anvil. Using the anvil, create a copper hammer to mine 3 by 3 areas. Get the luck or auto smelt ability for your pickaxe. Put a diamond modifier on your copper pickaxe so you can mine obsidian. Create a portal and go to the nether and get quartz. With all the materials you have now, you should be able to craft a scanner. Scanners with the right modifiers can scan for configured ore blocks, essentially x-ray vision.

Weapons and Armor

For armor; search for "@EpicKnights" in the JEI, this armor will require lots of iron smelted into steel using a blast furnace but it is totally worth it. Copper can be used to create vanilla-like armor. For weapons; make use of Tinker's mod. This modpack is by no means difficult when it comes to mobs in the world but if you ever plan on farming the wither or ender dragon, you will need to gear up. Defeat the wither and obtain its nether star and use it as a modifier on your gear to unlock the leveling ability. The ender dragon also drops materials that allows your Tinker tools to have a second ability slot. Auto smelt and luck together sounds nice doesn't it? Search "@Reboot LovelyRobot" if you want to make some robots to help defend your home.

Storage

There are some stupidly easy Refined Storage recipes to setup infinite creative storage. Although you will need a decent amount of iron and quartz before you can make these items.

Automation

Botany pots combined with hoppers can automate any kind of crop from wheat seeds to mystical agricultural crops. Note that the mystical drops will require inferium or better farmland. You can use Bonsai Pots to automate wood production. Refined Storage has auto crafter blocks that can auto craft recipes for you, this is the easiest way to automate recipes, although if you wanted more of a challenge you could try using the Create mod instead. There is also the Auto Crafter mod block you can try.

Other Tips

Eating different foods will eventually increase the maximum number of hearts you have. Cook your bread into toast. Useful commands: /spawn /tpa /tpahere /sethome /home. Pickup chests or passive mobs while sneaking with right click. There is a Create recipe to turn rotten flesh into leather. Every artifact is now craftable.

Requirements

4 GB of RAM should be more than enough

I am using a RX 6600 GPU which is probably overkill for a modpack like this. Let me know if your GPU works fine and I'll mention your GPU in the description here under requirements.

Someone said Intel HD Graphics might work.

Known Issues

Major

Conveyor belts may look weird for some. The fix is to run this client-side command /flywheel backend batching

Minor

There is no easy way to get bones since skeletons were disabled
